The Summer Reading Challenge ‘Animal Agents’ has launched across all Leeds Libraries!
Can you help the animal agents solve the clues and crack the codes?
Visit the library three times and read six books this summer and collect fantastic prizes for reading. Smelly stickers and more!
You can borrow up to 20 books with your free library card, it might be David Walliams, Harry Potter, Minecraft books, they have something for everyone!
It’s not too late to join, keep reading and collecting your prizes!
Events have started, including a well-attended ‘Spy Club’ at Beeston and Hunslet Libraries, where children took on the challenge of laser quest, battleship, code cracking and fingerprinting! One child said “This is awesome!”
Rachel Benn (Communities Librarian) said:
